Algonquin Binny's thread

Gonna contact Gerrit today about Pipeworks and a delivery. Also Flesk, 18th Street, Spiteful, and maybe a few others about plans to deliver out here.

 

Any news on Parabola? Looking like next week?

 

Any

Any timeline on when pipeworks will start delivering to you guys, or are you still working out details?

 

Everybody keeps asking us- in person, by phone, email, Twitter, here, etc. My distributor rep has no answer. Sounds like another phone call today- maybe this time to the F-W brewery rep for IL.

 

Shredder, I know there are some logistics issues at PW. Namely, they keep running out of beer before they can get out to us. I totally understand the situation; one has to take care of current retailers and bars before taking on new accounts. So we (and I presume our St. Charles store- we're supposed to get delivery the same day), will continue to be patient. In the meantime, come in, buy other stuff. We got plenty beers!

 

I am somewhat aware of pipeworks distribution situation, they're still small and can be hard to get so I know where you guys are coming from. I will keep on shopping in the meantime, I got some sucks last week and my girlfriend picked me up a couple "enjoy by" (which I've been dying to try) for me last night. Keep up getting good beer and I'll keep buying it! Cheers.

 

Has Parabola or Love Child #3 landed yet?

 

Scheduled off today. Please call the store, ask for Jeff. Cheers

 

Pipeworks delivered and it went on the shelf a few hours ago. About a third of everything is already gone. Lesson learned- Ninjas and Raspberry are going into the rarities case next time.

 

You didn't think the Ninjas or the RTA would go quick?

 

Saw the tweet but was too busy drinking the Parabola I got there yesterday. I was going to try to make it the morning but now I know that I need to be on my game when it comes to new releases!

 

I was a little surprised to see Ninja on the shelf but I restrained myself and purchased only 1 bottle.

 

Damn me!!!

 

Dude, it was the first time any of us had actually SEEN Pipeworks. Remember, we live way, way out in the middle of nowhere. And rarely get into the rest of the metro area. Not plugged into the Chicago beer geek scene, really- we have our suburban scene. You guys could help us by putting up a list of whales from all the new city breweries... that as they get out here, we'll know to limit their access. Thanks!

 

Sorry, I didn't mean to come off like a ass but I guess I kind of did. I have driving out to Cook for months now in order to get the stuff, so I'm well aware of the demand for the product. With the small amount that you will be getting anyways, in combination with everyone in the area wanting to get their hands on it, I'm sure it will be hard to keep on the shelf's no matter what.

My advice, take those damn 50/50 eclipse out of the case and make room for some good pipeworks stuff .

Cheers.

 

I'd agree with that, the eclipse just because of price will stick around for awhile.

Safe to assume all the raspberry is gone I am guessing, wanted to try it too

 

And the fact that they are not really that good, but for some reason I have them all.......

 

True. They're good, but when you've got things like yeti, stones RIS, and so many other great stouts in stock

 

Be patient with Pipeworks , they release a new beer EVERY WEEK.

 

Got my hands on some Murderous this morning, great stuff
